no saving

Help! From yesterday evening onwards, I can’t save any drafts, just getting a red banner saying ‘save failed’, instead. Plus, my blog has suddenly stopped going out on twitter. Any help gratefully received. Ruth.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I’ve never heard of that error. Are you logged in under exact the same username account that registered the blog?
Have you tried using the classic editor?
Staff are working on improving post revisions. If you cannot restore from your browser, or locate a revision, or restore from Trash then the content has been lost and cannot be recovered.
re: recovering a lost post or page
Please go to https://wordpress.com/post with the same browser and see if it offers to restore a post. If a restore button appears, that means a local copy was saved in your browser and you may be able to recover it.If the post was created on the dashboard of your own blog at Dashboard > Pages > Add New then you ought to be able to recover a lost post or page from revisions if needs be.

To locate draft POSTS Dashboard > Posts > All Post > Drafts

http://inovalimentos.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=draft&post_type=pageI recommend:
1. Always create your posts in the classic editor on the dashboard of your own blog at
Dashboard > Posts > Add New and pages at Dashboard > Pages > Add New
If you have cookies enabled on your browser your preference will be saved unless or until your clear your cookies, and it will take you to the classic editor automatically every time you create a new post.You cannot deactivate the new Beep Beep Boop editor but you do not have to use it. For locating the ways and means of accessing the legacy or classic pages for creating posts, editing posts, and viewing stats see here > Navigating the Classic WordPress.COM interface http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2015/04/05/navigating-the-classic-wordpress-com-interface/
2. Immediately after creating a post and entering a title click the save draft link. Thereafter, “click save draft” frequently.
3. Always allow pages to fully load before clicking any other links.
4. Never leave a post or page open for content creation or editing and walk away from it, or open another tab in the same blog and work on something else while it is still open. Save it properly and return to edit it later.
5. Use an offline blog editor so you have backups on your own computer http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/
If you were using the app you could report that here https://apps.wordpress.org/support/

Thanks so much for all your efforts to help. I’ve played around with the whole thing in all sorts of different ways, but basically, without being able to save anything, it’s useless. So I’ve stopping going through Chrome, and had to go back to Safari, even though it can’t cope with amendments to spacing.
If I knew of a better programme for writing and publishing my blog, I’d change to it, but don’t want to risk making the situation any worse.
Best wishes from Ruth.

Hi there,
Sorry that you were having issues while in Chrome. Have you gone back and tested the browser? Also, are your posts now going out to your twitter account as well?
Let me know if you are still having any issues.
Thank you!

Hi – it’s so kind of you to ask! I had to give up on Chrome, and am now trying again with Safari. The main problem with Safari is that when getting my blog ready in WordPress, it’s not possible to get the correct spacing between some of the lines. Chrome was slightly better in this respect.
Unfortunately, since the last WordPress update, both categories and tags have become much more difficult to use, and much less predictable. I have to say that it was all a lot better before the recent changes.
If I thought the paid-for version would be more controllable, I’d buy it, but nothing in the informations suggests it’s any different to the free one. I wish there was a way to know this before buying…
Thanks again for your kindness,
With best wishes from Ruth. -
Thank you for the information.
I’ll keep in touch if I find out any issues regarding Chrome.
Thanks again.
